Vehicle Description
Beautiful matching numbers 1965' Chevy Impala, 396 big block, 4
speed car in pristine mostly original condition with only 49,088
original miles. This impala was an special ordered vehicle for a
resident of Brockway PA, a small town in the northwestern part of
the state. It is equipped today as it was delivered from the
factory (except for the wheels). This vehicle went into service on
June 4, 1965. The only verification of the equipment configuration
is through a warranty card called a Protect-O-Plate. That card is
with the vehicle. All of the components, including the 396 cubic
inch big block and the Muncie 4 speed manual transmission our
original. Additional documentation shows that the odometer reading
is accurate. Surprisingly, it was ordered with manual brakes, but
they do the job. In addition, it is factory equipped with a Holley
4 barrel carburetor and Holley intake manifold. This is an unusual
but authentic option. Most big blocks were equipped with Quadrajet
carburetor's. At some undetermined time over the next two decades,
it was owned by a Luthersburg PA resident who, as a teenager and
into adulthood had regularly washed and waxed the car for its now
elderly owner. That young man became the second owner shortly after
completing training to become a Pennsylvania State Police Officer.
He, in turn, sold the car to a Brockport PA resident, who kept it
for ten years and sold it to a DuBois PA muscle car collector in
mid-1995. It was rarely driven over the next 11 years. The next
owner purchased it in 2006 just after it had been repainted in its
original Cypress Green. Other than the single repaint, this
beautiful car is unrestored!! The interior is original except for
the reproduction carpeting and the engine block was repainted in
2006. The chrome has not been touched and the engine compartment,
except for the block, is all original. It was not built with dog
dish hubcaps but the original wheel covers are with the car.
Finally, the Stewart warner gauges
